IT's the weekend, yay. So glad its here, this week seems to have dragged a lot!

No idea why, just seems to have gone slowly. Maybe its because I haven't been bloggin as much as I normally do. I have been crafting tho, making DT stuff & sorting DT stuff. So I have been busy, oh & I've been playing on the Wii & X-box with the girlies! So loving them being off school xx

Anyhoos it's time for a new challenge over at My Time To Craft! Our theme for the next two weeks is

SYMPATHY!

I know, a difficult card to make, but sadly one that is often needed!

I have used an image I won a while ago from Delicious Doodles, its a beautiful image & can also be used for a 'remembrance' card.

26 July 2013

Also Friday means a new release over at The Stamping Chef! This week we have a fab image called 'Life Is A Cabaret' I know our new DT members had fun playing with her! Make sure you pop over to the Stamping Chef blog & see what fab creations they have made!

I decided on purple & black as a few of the other DT ladies had done red & black. I just love the finished look!

You really need to pop over & see, there are some real fab images on offer at the moment!!

Anyhoos this week we want you to

CELEBRATE WITH GLITTER, BLING & SPARKLY THINGS!!

15 July 2013

Oh what a fab day we had on Saturday at the 'Summer of Crafting' in Doncaster! Myself & Kim did lots of giggling & spending, it was a fantastic day! Thanks you so much Kim, can't wait for you to come over to ours, so I can introduce you & David to our girlies, Charlie dawg, Freddie the gheko & of course Saxon the wolf!! We are gonna have a fab time!

Anyhoos I have got a bit sidetracked, today's card was made last minute yesterday....I have no idea what my brain is doing at the moment, I looked at the date for the craft fair & thought oh I best get my Sparkles card done before I go, because I'm gonna want to do on the Sunday is sleep! Oops no idea when it fell out of my brain but it did, I only realised it was due today when I was watching England beat Australia in the Ashes (happy dance) & the date came up on the TV for the 2nd test, then oh boy did I panic!!!

I just loved 'Fizzy Moon' when he first came out a few years ago & ended up buying all of the stamps & papers, but these new ones are so cute & cheap just perfect for a CAS creation....well that's what it was meant to be, but I had lots of fun making this card & even if it was rushed I am really happy with the and result! Wow!! who knew I could write so much....I just hope it makes sense lol I am soooooooooooooooooo tired..xx

12 July 2013

11 July 2013

Wow! I am really loving this sun! I've not been out in it much but its making my bones happy!

5 July 2013

It's time for a new release over at The Stamping Chef, where this week Tamara's pencils have been working overtime & have produced TWO new images for release!!

After much deliberation, I decided to use 'Dance Recital' as I know a few girls taking dance exams in the near future. Just thought this image would be perfect. I will be using it again in the future I think..

I just loved colouring in her dress, the skirt took me ages to do! But it was so relaxing I was nearly asleep lol!!

Jolene & she is gorgeous! I have a card half made using her so hopefully tomorrow you will see her too. If you can't wait pop over here & see what fab creations the DT have made using both of these fab new images!

Thank you for stopping by today, I am hoping to catch up with you all today. Now Danni has finished school until she goes to college in September, I seem to be spending lots of time on the Wii Or Xbox with her lol!! Making the most of my baby before she's to old to want to play Mario with her mommy!
